Travel & Hobbies

Over the years, my passions have included bushwalking, yoga, scuba diving, Latin dance, backpacker travel, Italian and Spanish, real estate investment, genealogy, desktop publishing and Scrabble. I am currently ranked around 150 out of some 240 competitive Scrabble players in Queensland.

However, my leisure time these days is defined largely by the needs and interests of my three Gifted and Talented children, aged 6, 4 and 3.
